Steve Jobs, c.1985

Edit: Resubmission - My girlfriend found the jumper, which I've now corrected

Seeff on the photoshoot from Retronaut’s article

> “I began the session by shooting the Mac team at the Apple offices and I could see Steve lurking in the background. It was clear that he was checking out how things were going. We were having tremendous fun and I was getting a lot of spontaneous and joyful shots… My desire with Steve was to engage in a genuine conversation about the world in which he lived and where he was most comfortable, and of course that came down to ideas about the future and where technology could go. These kinds of conversations are not at all heady and definitely require a balance of just having fun and hanging out together. That’s exactly what I was doing with Steve and as the session progressed, he became more and more informal.”

I very rarely do any colour restorations past 1950 for a number of reasons, not least for copyright, and frankly, black and white images are just amazing. It’s much easier to delve into photographs of events limited by camera technology of the time, rather than through creative intent. In this particular case however, I have an upcoming talk at the Apple Store in Covent Garden in London about colour restoration, and I felt it would be appropriate to bookend the talk with a before and after of this great shot of Jobs looking pensive and relaxed.

Whilst most sources on the internet attribute the set from 1984, researching a small detail could well put the image a year later; namely the Transformers Generation 1 Inferno Autobot toy lurking at the top (second from left), which was released by Hasbro in 1985. I normally don’t post up my references, but I’ve seen some comments recently saying that a lot of colourisation is based on guess work, I disagree - it’s just a commitment to researching and preparation, guesswork is a last resort (edit: I'm currently eating humble pie as my girlfriend dug out the correct colours of the jumper)
